    3. Does someone in Kanawha County recognize this family? I am researching the following WATSON persons: NAME-----------REL.-DOB------DOD-------DWELLING LOCATION Valentine------fat--unkno----unkno-----unkno Elizabeth------moth-unkno----unkno-----unkno Arthur*--------bro--1912?----1973?-----Marmet,Kan.,Co.WV Gene/Eugene----bro--unkno----unkno-----Marmet, Kanawha, Co.

Arthur or his brother, Eugene/Gene, served time in the Moundsville, WV penitentiary from about 1930 to 1941 (years are approximate)for the death of a local Marmet man (Sam Bruce). Arthur married Ina and a daughter, Betty Joe, was born. When Betty was about six, her mother died. Her father had her for a short while then she lived with her grandmother, Ella Spurlock, until Ellas' death. In short, Betty lost contact with her father, Arthur, and would like to know more about him. Also, she would like to know if she has half siblings.She thinks her father remarried and had two more children. Please note that the above info was from memory and other unverified sources and may not be entirely correct.If this family sounds similar to yours, please do not hesitate to contact me. Lorrie
